Information for those whom may find themselves concerned and/or confused: At some point in the recent past, GenRight vastly cut back on their number of authorized retailers; I don't know exactly when it happened, but I do know that Quadratec, Northridge4x4, and various other not-quite-as-big...

I posited the concern in another thread, but it merits discussion in a separate thread: does anyone have data on how much amperage the large-frame "Durango" alternators are producing at lower RPM, i.e. at engine idle speeds?  I know they are listed as making160 amps, but to-date I've not seen...

Several days ago, I picked up an older Warn X8000i from a dusty corner of the Jankyard.  Actually, that statement is a complete lie: Jankoid was the one that did the picking-up...and then I'm pretty sure that he carried it a few steps, handed it to me across the back of an LJ frame (behind which...

...and why did you choose it?  Discuss.

A question for those with experience with the 241OR and its associated driveline: why does the 241OR have a harmonic balancer?  231's either don't have one or don't need one (SYE conversions), other cases don't have one, and other versions of the 241 don't seem to have them either...so what...

Question for everyone: what bumper are you running?  What dictated your selection?  Have you put it to the test?  If so, how's it holding up?

Cheap insurance for you JK guys... [laugh] I saw that earlier today when I was shopping for maintenance parts for Greta, and I've been laughing ever since.

Info/discussion request for those that have installed suspension seats in their rigs: - What make/model did you get? - What are your impressions of it? - Would you install them again, or would you do a different route? - Are there any special "gotchas" regarding your selections?  Ex: the...

Does anyone have a listing of the stock Clevite bushing sizes for the TJ?  I'm looking for both diameter and thickness on the frame-ends and axle-ends of the control arms, and for some reason I can't seem to locate that information on the InterNet.  A list or a link would be great, or even a set...

Forgive me the oversimplification, but: what's your favorite gun, and why? 

I don't look at LED products very often, but these caught my attention: to date, I haven't seen an SAE-compliant dual-pattern offering.  "SAE-compliant" means "street-legal" for those that don't speak Legal...and thus, I thought these might be of interest to those with interest...

Complete the sentence from the title!  Use pictures and/or crude crayon drawings if at all possible.  [thumbsup]

The rarely-seen shaved Dana 44: if you were going to do it, how much would you try to trim, and how would you approach the entire project?

I'm chasing down a curious and elusive battery problem, and I'm having a slight spot of trouble finding the following low-voltage levels: - Voltage at which the trip meter automatically resets. - Voltage at which the clock resets (but not the radio presets). - Voltage at which the computer...

What brand(s) have you used, and in what axles?  How hard have you pushed them and how well have they held up?  Would you buy the same brand(s) again, or would you go a different route...and if so, why?
